Speaker 3 (00:23):
Hello, my beautiful beings, and welcome to the Bean for Tuesday.
First of yesterday's news. I am Glen Hart and we
are looking back at Monday. Fleeing drivers, drivers try to
run away from the cops. What's going on there? Little
social media rent? Throw one of those in. We've got
(00:45):
a privacy rent actually from Ryan and about how it
doesn't really exist anymore. And then Marcus wants to talk
about this run it straight competition sport, whatever it is
coming to New Zealand. Before any of that, please dob
in your meth dealer, say the cops a bit of
(01:06):
an unusual request, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (01:08):
They want the community to be proactive in terms of
stopping meth taking a hold in their communities. But how
realistic is it to expect people to dab in their
relatives or friends. It would be hard enough when you're
an upstanding member of the community with no links to gangs,
(01:29):
to give police information that could lead to an arrest.
You might be concerned about ramifications to your business or
to your home or to your family. But imagine if
the drug dealers are members of your very own family.
If you give information to the police that leads to
(01:50):
a conviction for dealing, not possession, but dealing, you know
that the person will be going inside for a very
long time. You might hate the crime but love the
crim How do you reconcile helping the police with their
inquiries with the knowledge that there could be an enormous
(02:10):
impact on your own family member.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
I love it when these sorts of things gather momentum
because I'm pretty sure the cops would like people to
dob in myth dealers all the time. Like I don't
think this is a new thing, but it's just a
more public campaign I guess. But yeah, if you know
(02:34):
any myth dealers do, do dob them in? Please news
talk has it been? And then after you dobbed them
and maybe they'll jump in their cars and try and
drive away from the cops. Yes, we had actual fleeing drivers,
not in the process of fleeing, I don't think, but
(02:54):
they've done it. On the Afternoon Show yesterday.
Speaker 4 (02:57):
How did this whole thing start off? What were you
doing wrong that attracted the attention of it?
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Yep.
Speaker 5 (03:03):
So North Auckland are setting south down one of the
main high way is well exceeding the speed limit. The
officer was coming in the opposite direction, must have picked
me up on his radar, flashed his lights and looked
straight under my eyes thinking that was going to pull
over while he had to do the U turn and
(03:24):
just keept it.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Wow.
Speaker 5 (03:26):
But I had the advantage. Yeah, I was running Australian,
the muscle car, so late model muscle car, so it
had the advantage over the Skoda Wow.
Speaker 4 (03:37):
At that point, sorry, Mike, at that point when you
decided to gap it, did you think, well, this is
this is really escalating things. If I do get pulled over,
now I'm in a lot of trouble.
Speaker 5 (03:47):
Either way, They're taking my car and I'm getting locked up.
So the new rules have changed. The fines are excessive.
You're pretty much going straight to jail, and you're losing
a car for six months, let's say, and you're paying
storage fees on it. So they've actually the rules that
they changed recently have actually made it more of an
advantage to take their risk rather than actually slow down
and stop and get us.
Speaker 6 (04:08):
So you were going more than fifty k over the
speed limit, like I take it. If that was what
the punishment.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Have you got?
Speaker 5 (04:13):
Called?
Speaker 2 (04:14):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (04:14):
Correct? Corect Do you.
Speaker 4 (04:16):
Think how do you feel about speeding?
Speaker 7 (04:18):
Do you think that's okay for you to speed?
Speaker 3 (04:21):
No?
Speaker 5 (04:22):
No, no, no no, there was actually a one off. But
put it this way. Age is on fifty nine. I've
been driving cars and driving sometimes the cars hard since
I'm early teens.
Speaker 3 (04:33):
Were an absolute cock.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
That's disturbing, isn't it? And you know, and you know,
big down, you know that there are a lot of
people like that out there who think that, well, they've
been driving such a long time, they can drive however
they want. And it's they're excellent drivers.
Speaker 1 (04:53):
You know.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
Props shouldn't try and pull them over, especially if they're
in there supdut muscle cars. What's the point of having
a supdut muscle car if you can't drive it at
one hundred and fifty ks in now? Quart quite sure
have a cop to.
Speaker 4 (05:07):
The YouTube on the motorway anyway you talk, Sibby.
Speaker 3 (05:13):
It's the kind of thing that would make me want
to take to social media to complain about if I
did social media, which.
Speaker 6 (05:20):
I don't know your history on this a rat is
an image that was used in Nazi Germany to characterize
Jews as vermin. You don't get away with that. You
got to know what you're doing right. And the thing
about it is this wasn't even Gary's first mistake. Like
first mistake, you could go, oh, you know, cut the guy,
but a slack he'd posted about migrant policy, got in trouble,
(05:41):
posted about the Tories, got in trouble, posted about politics
in general, got in trouble. And he'd be given chance
and chance and chance to learn that having a rant
on social media gets you in trouble. But he just
couldn't stop himself when it came to post in that
video in the little image of the rat. Now he's gone.
It is mind blowing to me that in twenty twenty five,
after twenty years of social media and if people get
(06:02):
in trouble, we still have people doing this. I mean,
we had Bussy Galore the other day. We had Damian
O'Connor last year saying Hamas was justified in what they
did in October seven to women and children. We had
Penny Henare posting a picture of David Seymour with Poe
coming out.
Speaker 7 (06:17):
Of his eyes.
Speaker 6 (06:19):
And a bum hoole for a palth.
Speaker 4 (06:22):
These are grown adults.
Speaker 6 (06:24):
Like It's like kindergarten stuff, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
Ah?
Speaker 6 (06:28):
You would think people would think it, would learn it's
not worth it. But I guess the dopamine hit that
you get from people loving what you say and narcissism,
those things are strong motivators. It would transpire anyway. Now
here's the thing.
Speaker 4 (06:42):
This is what I think.
Speaker 6 (06:43):
Okay, some people need social media for work influences for example,
or the Maori Party who appear to do all of
their politics there, and politicians who need it for publicity,
and maybe for them the rules are a bit different.
Maybe they just need to stick to the subject at hand,
like footballers post about football nothing else, Marti party post
about politics nothing else, and maybe don't tweet after you've
(07:04):
been drinking. But for the rest of us, get off it.
Adults do not need social media?
Speaker 3 (07:09):
Is Gary Lineker an adult? Bring that's up for debait?
But she's right about we don't need it, and they're
banning it for pre adults. So I guess we just
don't need social media. Let's get rid of it all together, right.
Ryan was in a philosophical mood yesterday morning. He was
(07:33):
thinking about how we've really just given up our right
to privacy. We've just handed it over to whoever wants it, really,
haven't we?
Speaker 7 (07:39):
My online supermarket and electricity provider know more intimate details
about me than some of my exes. We regularly reveal
more personal details to countdown then we would on a
first date. Companies here can basically ask you anything. You
often have to answer. They must take reasonable steps to
(08:00):
keep this a secret. But how long until the hack
has come? And then it's all out there and it's
all out the window, and it's all on the internet.
Right everyone knows that happens. The EU has quite strict rules.
Businesses must give you the option of rejecting cookies. You
notice when you go on a website in the EU,
you can decline the cookies informed consent over there only
(08:21):
asking for the stuff related to what you're buying or doing,
and you have the right to go in and delete
or change the information that companies hold on you. I
know we can't do that, can we? You could avoid
the internet altogether? Of course I can hear what you're saying,
but that train has sort of left the station, so
can I suggest KICKSI can I ask a question to
(08:44):
businesses this morning? Can you please stop asking us so
many damned, irrelevant and annoying questions?
Speaker 3 (08:53):
Well, they're relevant to somebody, aren't they. I mean that
data gets sold to somebody I think somewhere along the
way who can make use of it. I mean, if
you don't like it, don't do business with that outfit,
or give them fake answers. That's that's fun anyway, news
(09:15):
talk has it been? Now? How excited is Marcus about
the run as fast as you can into each other competition?
Speaker 4 (09:22):
Of course, I think modern day jousting. Know much about
modern day jousting, but I'll tell you one thing.
Speaker 7 (09:30):
They have those.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
Kind of fears.
Speaker 4 (09:34):
It's bigg In America we address up as the Middle Ages. Yeah,
that's pretty weird, isn't it. And you go and do
jousting and stuff like that. I've seen it on dating
on the spectrum that sow I know about it. If
you want to talk about this, we're on about twenty
six to ten nine eight twenty six to nine oh
eight hundred and eighty ten eighty nine nine text. Are
(09:57):
you opposed the trust stadium is holding it? Are you
opposed the warriors are involved, I wouldn't be surprised. All
captain sensible the coach say, isn't We're not going to
do this. They're calling it the dumbest sport ever. What
would be the other contenders for the dumbest sport ever? Well,
(10:18):
the neuroscientists have condemned it, of course they have.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
It's the job.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
Modern day jousting. What's the difference between this and boxing,
for example? Well, I guess with boxing you probably could
say that it encourages to get quite fit. But maybe
if boxing was invented a day ago, they wouldn't allow
it to happen now.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Don't get me wrong, I think the run it straight
thing is this stupid thing. I also think that punching
each other in the head game is a stupid thing,
although I must confess I have enjoyed watching it at
various times past. I mean, just because it's stupid doesn't
(11:13):
mean it's not watchable. But I will say that I
feel like they're running into each other as fast as
you can. That is just most forms of football, isn't it.
It's definitely rugby, It's definitely American football, grid iron, It's
rugby league I don't fully understand exactly what they're doing
(11:37):
in AFL, but there is a certain amount of running
into each other, and it's just when it's just one
on one and it just looks sillier for some reason,
doesn't it doesn't It isn't it weird?
Speaker 7 (11:50):
I am.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
A Glen Hart. I am I hope to run into
you again tomorrow, so to speak.
Speaker 5 (12:02):

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
